Nahwa is a territory located within the Emirate of Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates. It occupies a unique geographical position as a counter-enclave, situated inside the Omani territory of Madha.
The area's complex status is defined by its relationship with surrounding borders: Madha serves as an exclave of Oman and an enclave within the United Arab Emirates, while Nahwa exists specifically within that Omani territory. This configuration makes it a distinct geographical anomaly between the two nations.
